You saying that
the scene of the crime was secured.

:16:03
That's what's ridiculous.
:16:06
Seven, no, eight people, and a pussycat,
walking all around that room...

:16:12
You call that secure?
:16:24
We hung around a lot.
:16:26
Billy had a car
and he'd give me rides sometimes.

:16:31
Mr. Tucker, do you,
of your own knowledge...

:16:34
...know anything of the relationship
between Billy Hanson and...

:16:38
...Jim Williams?
:16:40
Objection.
:16:41
Objection, Your Honor.
:16:46
Let me see you gentlemen
over here a minute.

:16:54
What's this about?
:16:57
Your Honor, if this boy says
what I think he's going to say...

:17:00
...you can't ask the jury to ignore it.
:17:02
You can't let a skunk go in the box
and then say they didn't smell it.

:17:06
Our intention with Mr. Tucker is to show
the victim was afraid of the defendant.

:17:11
To do that, he has to describe
the nature of the relationship.

:17:15
Your intention
is to paint Jim Williams pink...

:17:18
...then rely on some prejudice
in the jury.

:17:21
Besides which, whatever he says
will be secondhand.

:17:24
It would be hearsay.
:17:27
He asked the witness
if he knew of his own knowledge.

:17:30
If he knows, it's not hearsay.
:17:33
I'll allow it...
:17:34
...but I'll grant you the same latitude
when it's your turn.

:17:37
Objection's overruled.
:17:47
Mr. Tucker, the question was,
"Do you, of your own knowledge...

:17:51
...know anything of the relationship
between Hanson and the defendant?"

:17:56
Yes, sir.
:17:58
Jim would give Billy money
when he needed it.
